    Dell 2005FPW powers up but no display

    Glad I found this forum and hoping that I could get some guidiness on my monitor issue.

    I have Dell 2005FPW worked flawless until yesterday noon. Turned off both monitor and computer and came back night and turned on. Nothing were displayed on the monitor. Dell self check display would show (picture 1) and nothing else. After trouble shooting, I found out the issue is with this monitor as I could able to connect same computer to another monitor and it worked.

    What could have gone wrong and how do I fix it?. I don't see flash or anything when turn on. I could turn on OSD setting (picture 2).

    Appreciate your help.

    when you say a different monitor, did you use the same cable?

      HI are you using a VGA (blue plug) or DVI (white plug) lead
      Assuming you have both inputs on the back are you switched to the right setting #just something to check

        Thanks for the replies, appreciate it. Yes, I was using the same cable to test both monitors.

        It took a sudden turn yesterday when I tried to connect Dell monitor again and this time it worked!. I have no clue as to why it would show display earlier. I used the same cable, same desktop etc. Do you think it might have gone through some sort of 'reset' in between?. Or else, it is just a symptom for upcoming major failure???

          If I were a betting man, I would put money on the latter.

            If the monitor is not under warranty, you may want to consider taking it apart and checking the capacitors, cable connections, etc.
